'Lockout' surprised me, I read previous reviews by critics and audiences and they weren't brilliant but I thought it was alright. 'Lockout's' average as a whole, the film's full of more or less non-stop action, which is great if you want to watch a 'popcorn flick', if you're looking for something more in-depth then this isn't it. 'Lockout' has a very basic and unoriginal premise, it has a decent cast that all perform to a decent standard, although if Guy Pearce wasn't in this film I probably wouldn't have watched it, he does save this film with his cheesy one liners and his 'I'm to cool for this' attitude. The CGI was poor, which is probably due too its low budget. There's this one car chase sequence at the beginning which looked absolutely dreadful.
As a whole I enjoyed 'Lockout', it's cheesy but has a retro feel which makes it okay. It's great as a 'to kill time' movie but if you're looking for something to really get your teeth into then I wouldn't watch this.
